FEMA received several requests for a copy of the proposed information collection via email and telephone, as well as from participants at a public meeting.

Collection of Information

Title: FEMA Preparedness Grants: Port Security Grant Program (PSGP).

Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved information collection.

OMB Number: 1660-0114.

Form Titles and Numbers: FEMA Form 089-5, PSGP Investment Justification.

Abstract: The previous version of FEMA Form 089-5 is outdated and has become cumbersome with subsequent program explanations within the notice of funding opportunity explaining the type of information required. The revised form consolidates the requested information and provides easy to follow drop-down boxes to minimize confusion among applicants, reducing time needed to collect the information for both applicants and FEMA, and reducing the review time by FEMA and federal partners.

Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal Government; Business or other for-profit.

Estimated Number of Respondents: 597.

Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 17,154 hours.

Estimated Cost: The estimated annual cost to respondents for the hour burden is $1,094,112.60. There are no annual costs to respondents' operations and maintenance costs for technical services. There are no annual start-up or capital costs. The cost to the Federal Government is $770,401.

Dated: December 27, 2016.
